Viessmann Component

just to be certain : you did click on “Choose entity” , right ?

And do you have something similar in the Device config ?

Oh yes. And I’ve searched Dev Tools → States for any water_heater entities… there are none.

I’ve just deleted the integration and re-installed it to see if there was anything I missed. Nope…

And no, no controls module in the ViCare device, other than the “one-time charge” button:

Is there a mapping table available which translates the entity names exactly to german?

ViCare Water → Wasser Vorlauftemperatur?
ViCare Boiler Supply Temperature → ?
ViCare Solar Storage Temperature → Pufferspeicher Temperatur?
ViCare Supply Temperature →

ViCare Water → Warmwasser
ViCare Boiler Supply Temperature → Kesseltemperatur
ViCare Solar Storage Temperature → Warmwasser-Solar
ViCare Supply Temperature → Vorlauftemperatur

Hello everyone.
In November I installed a hybrid system with a VITODENS 200-W and a VITOCAL 200-S.

The Vitodens has a built-in wifi module and I configured it. The Viessmann integration worked as expected in Home Assistant and I saw 41 (!) sensors. Cool!

On the other hand, the Vitocal does not have the wifi, so I ordered a Vitoconnect OPTO2, which is arrived today.

After installing this module, I can browse both devices using the ViCare app on my phone (see the attachment below).

“Caldaia” means heater (VITODENS )
“Pompa di calore” means heatpump (VITOCAL)

The problem is that in Home Assistant no new sensors are added: I can’t see any new sensor related to the heatpump.
I tried to delete and re-add Viessmann ViCare integration, but without success.

Any idea?

Update.
I removed from the app the Vitodens, and now Home Assistant gets data from the Vitocal (25 sensors).
So il seems only the “first” deviced added in the app, is actually polled to create sensors.


Update 2.

I re-added the Vitodens and I press “reload” on the integration tile.

Now I see 2 devices:

  • CU401B_S (I suppose the heat pump)
  • Vitodens_200

Now everything seems to be fine. I hope my experience is useful to other users.


Update 3
I spoke too soon

After few minutes, all CU401B_S entities are no longer available. :frowning:


Update 4

Hello!
I’m using 200-S heatpump and a Vitoconnect Opto2 module.
The component sets up fine, but my climate entity doesn’t allow any temperature change. (Gives error if I add it to a climate card and tries to change anything - COMMAND NOT FOUND)

I also don’t get any energy consumption info (not sure if i’m supposed to).
I can only control the hot water temperature.

Tried the custom component now. Same thing.
Using latest version of HA.

Here’s what I get on entities and sensors:

I thank in advance if anyone can shed some light on this. :slight_smile:

Hi guys,
i’ve just installed ver. 2023.5.x and i’ve this issue with vicare component:

Anyone has this issue?

I don’t know if it was the same issue, but my Viessmann integration stopped working. I removed it and upgraded HAOS to 10.1 and it came back. It also added a water_heater in addition to the climate entity.

Would be nice if this integration had an option to go direct to optolink controller than through the cloud. The vcontrold mqtt add-on is progressing, but isn’t anywhere near as good as this integration.

Mine stopped working suddenly as well. The log shows:

Error setting up entry ViCare for vicare

Missing 'data' property when fetching installations
5:13:53 AM – (ERROR) components/vicare/__init__.py - message first occurred at 5:12:12 AM and shows up 2 times

Mine stopped working as well about 5 hours ago

Mine too. Seems there is a problem on Viessmann 's servers.
At least for some people. Is it still working for anyone?

Mine stopped working too in the morning.

I‘ve deleted the integration, restarted HA, removed the cached token (/config/.storage/vicare_token.save), created a new api key in the Viessmann developer portal an re-added the integration.

Since then it works again without problems for me.

Same here. This solution worked for me

same issue with token here. will have to do the fix also.

Going this way, did all variable/entity names stay unchanged afterwards? Wouldn’t like to redo all of the graphing pages afterwards

I only deleted the file /config/.storage/vicare_token.save and restarted Home Assistant.
All good. No need to remove the integration, no need to recreate any account.

Thanks, worked for me as well

Thanks, it worked just by deleting the fle. Curious to why it happened tough.
